>>2310557 >>2311293Why go to work anymore? Why not take after the Stalin and become a bank robber. I guaruntee you there are lots of people you can rob and get away with it easier than killing some cops and get away with it. Why don't you rob a drug dealer or something? All you have to do is pull of the robbery and you don't even have to worry about the cops investigating you.
>>2311294>He has understandable reasons for not showing up, which is a job. The question is felix when is your free day? Will you show up to the protests then?That's not a reasonable excuse in relation to the shit he's always in here screaming about.
>>2311303Stalin wasn't a bank robber. Kamo robbed the bank with his cadre while Stalin watched from across the street and phoned Lenin when it was done.
This post brought to you by "give Kamo credit" gang.
>>2311307well felix what are you going to do there. Felix, prove to us you arent a poser. What will you do there.
Felix pls respond
>>2311311So it's not illegall
Depends on the whims of Congress and Senate
And probably would be downed by the SCOTUS
Libs need to be rightfully mad, but this is another nothingburger
>>2311311THAT THREAT DOESN'T MEAN MUCH TO
ILLEGALS NOW DOES IT DONALD
>>2311311republicucks have been saying this for years but nothing ever comes out of it
trump himself has been saying "one year in jail" for like 8 years
>>2311310"just snipe cops from the roof like the IRA you guys!!!! they'll never find out it was you" - glowing the real iron felix
meanwhile… picrel
>>2311316>>2311311He'd have to overturn a supreme court ruling
> The landmark Supreme Court case regarding flag burning is Texas v. Johnson, decided in 1989. In this case, the Court ruled that flag burning constitutes symbolic speech, and therefore is protected under the First Amendment.
>Gregory Lee Johnson burned an American flag outside the 1984 Republican National Convention in Dallas, Texas, as a political protest. He was arrested and convicted under a Texas law that prohibited the desecration of a venerated object.
>The Supreme Court, in a 5-4 decision, reversed Johnson's conviction, finding that his actions were protected free speech. The Court reasoned that flag burning was a form of expressive conduct and political speech
>This decision struck down state flag desecration laws, which had been in place in many states. It also highlighted the tension between the symbolic importance of the flag and the right to express oneself, even in a way that might be considered disrespectful. So I guess the best way is if some lower jurisdiction passed the law and then they fought it to the Supreme Court and overturned the decision. Could they even do that tho? When the Supreme Court specifically made such laws illegal?
>>2311315>it unreasonable to ask if he's going to take his own advice?Im giving him the chance for him to say that he will follow his advice. Felix, tell us what you will do in the protests. Will you do the things that you told us to do.
Felix pls respond.
>>2311327maybe they lack an
IRON determation idk
>>2311330thats not the point
>>2311335I do think actually want an end to the neoliberal system. Look at how they responded to H1B visas with Ramaswamy and Musk.
MAGA is a pathetic, failed, redirected attempt to reject or reform the neoliberal economic system. They are simply too uneducated and too brainwashed to understand why MAGA will never fix any of their problems. Many MAGAtards I knew as a teen/in my early 20s are now leftists because they realized the right wing has no actual plan to fix any of the problems plaguing the working class.
>>2311339I know 5+ people who went from being MAGAtards to agreeing with socialism when I outlined it for them and explained how neoliberal economics will never solve collapsing birth rates, outsourcing, etc.
MAGA by definition admits the neoliberal economic system has failed the working class.
>>2311345Yeah basically.
>>2311344All were motivated in part by backlash towards democrat identity politics in the late 2010s. This described myself too. There was also an appeal of fiscal conservatism, but fiscal conservatism is a pretty stupid idea that you can convince someone to drop with a short conversation. Keep in mind our age group was mostly drawn to MAGA out of general discontent with the state of the US economy as young people. Myself and most of these people I convinced were essentially coincidental conservatives out of a dislike of the democrat party.
I don't know any real fully brainwashed MAGAtards on a personal level. I have encountered some right wing neoliberals unfortunately. They're truly unreasonable people who will argue whether surplus value is even possible to calculate, engaging in sophistry to purposely miss the point. They're not open to being convinced of anything.
Do keep in mind we all stopped supporting maga before 2025 so the other poster is correct about that. I don't know how extreme the current maga retards are. Probably more than I or anyone I convinced was.
I'd usually go over these:
1. Republicans are responsible for blocking E-Verify in states like Texas. Republicans actively want illegal labor. They only want to appear to be against illegal labor. Their political donors still demand they facilitate illegal immigration and the de facto scabs undocumented workers end up functioning as.
2. Collapsing birth rates are an issue of economic incentives. Children are massive financial liabilities in modern capitalist economies. In agrarian economies they were financial assets used as free labor by their parents. Trump has no plan to address these incentives. He has done nothing about this in his first term.
3. Employers quite literally beg the government for socialized services, infrastructure, etc. Public education came about due to demand by employers. Socialized infrastructure in the form of power grids, water, so on also largely exists to facilitate commerce. It is in the best interest of both you as a taxpayer, the employer, and the person who needs medical care to simply render medical care where possible to keep that person healthy and productive, even if you are a selfish, terrible person.
4. Similarly the hatred of recent immigrants is not conducive to stopping mass economic immigration as a whole. Regardless of your opinion on their culture, you will require their support to end economic immigration.
5. Show them the princeton and oxford studies showing no correlation between popular support and political policy. These studies also showed interest groups and associated bribes like campaign funds, lobbying, etc. dictate almost the entirety of political policy in the US.
>>2311345>the maga brain is washed continuouslyit's dunked in shit continuously
also MAGA is literally neoliberalism. privatization, austerity, deregulation.
>>2311344Anyway, yes, these 6 or so people dislike both maga and trump now.
>>2311366Yeah but it harnesses the same animosity that would lead to leftist politics like Occupy. It's a misdirection.
>>2311366the neoliberal person makes no demands that change anything.
>privatization, austerity, deregulationuniversal maga tariff has remained. austerity measures failed. doge failed and elon was ousted
>>2311414Well yeah but its the law in the US to not refuse service based on identity. If you're a Yazidi that survived ISIS and then migrated to the US and then open a coffee shop you should not be allowed to discriminate against Muslim patrons in your shop just because of your individual trauma
I get that a lot of people are angry because of the genocide in Gaza and the inaction of imperialist bourgeois governments but we should not lose sight at basic principles of liberty and equity. Additionally refusing service to American Jews because of what Israeli Jews are doing- well, that's just collective punishment
>>2311423The guy doing this is a far right Zionist activist. He intentionally went there to bother them with an Israeli flag hat
He is not a random Jew. He has a big following as a pro Israel guy on social media. He planned this
>>2311423Also it's insane to compare a Zionist with a hat with an Israeli flag on who is known to be pro Israel on social media to a woman who was abused by isis.
Go fuck yourself
>>2311423This is the guy by the way you are simping for comparing him to a fucking isis victim. You can review the article he has over a half dozen times he has gotten into confrontations in public with people vote shit like this starting political arguments at different businesses
>Viral antisemitism victim has a history of loud public fightshttps://sfstandard.com/2024/11/01/viral-antisemitism-victim-has-a-history-of-loud-public-fights/But Hirsch, a 41-year-old advertising creative who has done contract work for Apple and Airbnb, is no stranger to conflict and controversy. (His LinkedIn page appears to have been deleted after publication.) In at least three other incidents dating back to last November, he has engaged in loud public arguments with strangers, with issues at dispute including Israel and Palestine, local politics and his own driving.
Some of these incidents were recorded by the other party, some by Hirsch himself. In several, they took place in front of one or more of his young children. At least one other encounter besides the café incident resulted in a call to police.
>>2311441Growing up Jewish and learning about the persecution and murder of his ancestors has left him ready to defend himself when he perceives a threat, he said. “I was raised with the stories of the temperature rising,” he said. “I’m not the most flexible person.”
On Oct. 20, Hirsch’s birthday, he took his three children to the weekly farmer’s market in Oakland’s Montclair neighborhood, close to where he lives. There, wearing his trademark Hebrew Orphan Asylum cap, he got into a shouting match with supporters of Pamela Price, Oakland’s district attorney, who is facing a recall election
Three weeks earlier, on Sep. 30, Hirsch was involved in a road rage incident in Berkeley that left the other driver so disturbed he reported it to the police.
In a video of the incident, Hirsch, again with his trademark hat on and at least one child riding in the back of his BMW, is seen yelling from the driver’s seat at the unseen other driver, who pleads with Hirsch to stop yelling and drive away.
“I mean, this guy was out of his mind,” Jeff said. “He’s screaming out the window. Like, how dare I honk at him? All of a sudden, I look, and I see a car seat and a kid, and I’m like, ‘Whoa, dude, you’re a dad.’”
While discussing the three incidents mentioned above, Hirsch volunteered two more videos that show him confronting a man who was ripping down Israeli hostage posters in November last year.
“I was coming home from work late one night and a man was vandalizing the memorial for the hostages in our neighborhood. And so I got out of the car and I saw him. And I let him say as much as he wanted to,” he said. “I also felt like I had to say something, to do something.”
Hirsch, who recorded the encounter, posted the first video on social media, then tracked down the man, Matthew Wilson. He contacted Wilson, inviting him to return to the site to make amends. Wilson did return but brought his own posters — showing Gazans killed by Israel — leading to an argument that Hirsch recorded in a second video.
“You can’t cancel me twice, bud,” Wilson says in the video, seconds after Hirsch started filming.
The pair go back and forth for 20 minutes, Hirsch accusing Wilson of antisemitism and Wilson accusing Hirsch of supporting Israeli propaganda and genocide.
A friend of Wilson’s repeatedly tries to de-escalate, asking Hirsch to stop filming, but he refuses.
“You’re angry and you’re trying to further instigate,” he tells Wilson.
Reached by phone, Wilson wasted no time making his feelings for Hirsch known.
“Antagonistic and inflammatory are the first two words that come to mind,” Wilson said. “He really seemed to want to get me riled up any way he could.”
Wilson, who sings in the pop-punk band Set Your Goals and makes a living as an options trader, said he got a half-dozen hate messages after Hirsch tagged him in the video of their first encounter.
“It makes me sad,” he added. “It makes me think he’s, like, mentally ill.”
>>2311446You guys only add the qualifier of zionists jews after pressed
Bfor that the posts are all about "jews" plain and simple
Like how tf are we supposed to react to that
>>2311445Here is another situation
Hirsch said the incident started when a man screamed about the upcoming election being “undemocratic,” and Hirsch, thinking the man was a Donald Trump supporter, challenged him.
“And I kind of laughed and turned to be like, ‘You wanna walk me through that? How is this election undemocratic?’ And he and I were having this conversation about it.”
At that point, he said, a woman interjected, telling listeners to ignore Hirsch and saying, in Hirsch’s telling, “‘Don’t bother talking to him, don’t bother talking to him at all, he’s a racist and all he cares about is what the millionaire interests are.'”
Hirsch said he accused the woman of using antisemitic language, which she denied, saying she herself had “Jewish heritage.”
The woman, activist Heather Phipps, disputed Hirsch’s account. “Those words are a lie,” she said in a phone interview. “I didn’t say a single one of those words to him and there’s zero evidence that I did. In fact, there are witnesses that can tell you I didn’t.”
>>2311448Video of the incident, posted Oct. 29, shows the pro-Price demonstrators repeatedly asking Hirsch to lower his voice and end the conversation. One of the demonstrators urges him to be mindful of the presence of his three small children, who sit nearby in a wagon.
Hirsch resists their attempts to end the encounter, insisting he is holding the woman accountable. “I’m calm. I’m using a volume that shames you because you want people not to see what you have been whispering to me,” Hirsch shouts in the video.
>>2311449Again you only explain that he is a zionist troll after being pressed
Before that the posts just mentioned "if you don't serve Jews coffee you are getting arrested"
Just Jews, no context or qualifier whatsoever
>>2311412uygha looks exactly like you'd expect
It's really assured me in my position that with a lot of people the starting point isn't any sort of ideological line struggle but something way more basic
>I would love to fuck off, say I'm dealing with some shit. Like I don't get that everybody's dealing with some shit. Guy's angry no one takes out a cop. Why he hasn't is a scheduling conflict allegedly. In all likelihood after assassinating a pig your troubles are over permanently.
All I'll say on this. I try my best to ignore that type of shit but he's real obtrusive in addition to everything else.

also, spokespeople are supposed to be attractive. if you're reaching the masses on tiktok, you send your lookers.
>>2311511Oh yeah, I agree that it sucks. However, there are larger forces at work here. This may not even be conscious in the part of this woman. Or as the above anon alluded to, maybe the RCP asked her to do this, all the while thinking nothing of it because this is how female spokespersons are supposed to act, in their minds.
Social conditioning can suck.
>>2311526Well the movement is open for everyone but there is something truly weird when the revolutionary working class party has no working class
And i'm not just doing the uberwoke thing about the noticable lack of ethnic minorities among the working class, like migrant farmers (albeit that also present a glaring absence), but even an absence of the general working class; where are the truckers, the welders, the teachers, the janitors, the delivery guys, etc
>>2311478the real challenge was being normal and this video failed. it sounds like a weird cult, why do they talk like this?
>gathered to thoroughly assess the global and national political situation and methods for building the party to overthrow capitalism.>*newspaper announcing the end is coming*>we discussed revolutionary theory, shared lessons and experiences from building and left with a renewed sense of clarity, discipline and revolutionary optimism.is this how they think mao recruited people?
>>2311518Road blocks work if you manage to get like every single car mechanic in the US to block roads
In sufficiently massive numbers disruptive action will become a show of force that assert your position on your enemy
If you just block individual roads with like a dozen dudes you're just gonna be treated as societal menace
Tldr collapse of unions have destroyed mass protests in the US

>>2311363I'm on a server full of ex-Nazi ex-skinhead types. Pretty much everyone wants socialism. Because once you reject the bourgeois left and you reject the bourgeois right then you're only left with one option.
That said, the revolutionary potential of the types is overhyped. Idk it's a pick your poison thing. It takes work.
Look, I'm transgender and autistic and it's been a real barrier. But the reality is that the liberals are stealth genocidal as well. It's not that magas are good people or anything. Just that the libs are equally bad.
Anyhow don't confuse the leaders of a movement with the rabble who follow it. Idk. It all comes down to class. Nazis who are petty-bourgeois are not salvageable. Nazis who are proles are salvageable. Petty-bourgeois libs, don't bother. Prole libs take a chance.
>>2311573>I'm also trans and autistic and I think that Socialism/Communism is the ONLY way forward! No exceptions!Sorry I just meant to quote the first part:
>>I'm on a server full of ex-Nazi ex-skinhead types.Well at least they're "ex" nazis I guess. I remember Shay was always posting stupid shit from a Nazi discord he hanged out on.
>>2311578Ah my b. I was I guess you could say "influenced" by certain characters that had more than questionable opinions on politics (they blamed the Jews for everything and no one else) Personally I think it was because that I grew up in a very rural area that there were lot's of Nazis and Confederate sympathizers which caused me to be indoctrinated by the locals. Thankfully I'm far away from that place now and consider myself to be much more open minded and progressive.
Anyway thanks for reading my blog post.
>>2311578Reactionary is not a class position 🙄.
I blame Maoist idealism on the contemporary rot of imperial core "leftism." The proletarian line on everything does not make you proletarian. The bourgeois line on everything doesn't make you bourgeoisie.
People misapply a solution meant for feudal peasants to the contemporary imperial core.

>>2311651stop democrackking
stop sucking the workforce out of Mexico
you can't expect toilers around the world to work only for the benefit of your unsustainable lifestyle in America
>>2311665the illegal immigrants are mostly workers
but the protesters are lumpen garbage and petit bourgeois retards
The petit bourgeois are protesting because they do not want to lose their cheap workforce
The lumpen animals are rioting because they are hooligans who like to break shit, are looking for looting opportunities, and do not want border enforcement so that their shitty drug and human trafficking is not disturbed
>>2311663it is unsustainable, but America has a special kind of over-consumption problem
proletarians of each country should fight their bourgeoisie, not suck cock to get treats from crackka American master
>>2311677lumpen is a correct category
you are mad because much of your so called 'allies' are lumpen garbage
>>2311679are you retarded? the post you're replying to literally says 'proles should fight their national bourgeoisie'.
That literally means improving their material conditions.
But you are a racist American who thinks only by moving to America and working for retarded petit-bourgeoisie that a brown person can improve their material conditions.
>>2311696predictable
Elon was always liked by democrats before overtly supporting Trumpo.

yes yes mr Rudyard Kipling
>>2311701I never proclaimed support for Hinkle mate
I dont even like him or Haz
Why are you inventing scenarios in your head like that?
And I have been posting for months, I just happened to agree with most of you folks on these other issues then.
You literally cannot entertain the possibility of a real opposition to your bubble. It must necessarily be a wrecker in your mind.
>>2311711no way
this is retarted maoist position
King Lear would say that 100%
>>2311699lol in typical libtard fashion youre confusing an inherent feature of capitalism with some retarded american exceptionalism. the countries where can make stuff out for less cost of production and have higher productivity are gonna dominate the market over the ones that are low and expensive always
>>2311707>choose one bourgeois nation-state over another NOW>>2311713yeah i wonder why poor people would want to move to wealthier country, truly a mystery
>>2311716no undocumented workers are workers
A worker is a proletarian, by definition, and this cannot be petit Bourg or lumpen
you are conflating my criticism of the protestors, who are majorly lumpen and petit Bourg, with the actual immigrants, who are majorly workers
>>2311723 (me)
my wording is confusing here
I meant:
No. Undocumented workers ARE workers.
>>2311727>omg why do people express themselves using references to popular culture that is heavily advertised and broadcast at them from a young ageit is a mystery. PS Lenin named his pamphlet
What is to be Done after his favorite novel
<ummm sweaty novels are different from TV slopyeah well he lived in a time before TV so that makes sense.
>>2311747yeah the bible can be used in the same way. most people are stuck in the superstructure and ignore the base. that's all I'm saying.
>>2311746You felt targeted because I accurately described you. You then backpedaled out of that description so I'm glad I held you to account.
>>2311790>"rebellion" clearly meant to parallel blah blah blahGeorge Lucas explicitly said they were supposed to be the Viet Cong.
>The empire is very clearly designed to be a sci fi version of the Soviet UnionTheir soldiers are literally called "Stormtroopers", bud. They're supposed to be Nazis.
>>2311348That's why you have to explain it with the language of economics and externalized costs. You guide them to the conclusion that something that looks like socialism is ideal for taxpayers, workers and employers to create a more efficient society.
You don't pull out the socialism or communism words until they have already themselves realized why fiscal conservatism and neoliberalism are inefficient systems because they don't invest in the populace. The Mccarthyism brainwashing is too strong.
everyone on the american "left" is either fun hating larping puritans who call everything lumpen degeneracy, or undisciplined unorganized chaotic hedonists who just want to skip work and wreck public property, or centrist neoliberal status quo defenders who just want imperialism "marginalized folx" to be allowed to commit war crimes
>>2311786the problem with applying lenin to star wars is that the rebels in star wars are trying to re-establish a galactic bourgeois republic and the self determination of planets, and their allies include aristocracy (like princesses) bourgeois senators, and warrior-monk clergy (jedis). so even though Andor does clearly have those influences you mention, they don't really make sense in the fictional universe it's applied to. it's actually weaker than it could be because the directors are trying to fit a based peg into a cringe hole.
>>2311810The fundamental problem I see with political moderates in the USA is that they refuse to accept that the vast majority of their lives are dictated by systemic environmental factors and incentives. Shitlibs are horrible about this because fundamentally they're still drinking the neoliberal koolaid.
Dems merely adopt the aesthetics of ideas like "toxic masculinity" to shame their opponents and call them incels. They never follow the train of thought deep enough to see how toxic masculinity is actually an example of top down psychological warfare against the workers to keep them slaves of the capitalist class. The way they appropriate ideas from marxist entities is ultimately to belittle and harm their ideological opposition rather than benefit their fellow worker.
They look at surface level characteristics. They see falling birth rates. They say this is due to people immersing themselves in entertainment, foregoing religion, etc. The reality is that modern capitalism financially disincentivizes having children. Modern capitalism is fundamentally a dysgenic system that leads to population collapse. Temporarily "fixing" it would just result in the same outcome without massive reform.
Similarly political corruption is the natural conclusion of wealth being hoarded into a small cabal. You cannot have a government which simultaneously allows for massive wealth inequality and also remains without corruption. The uber rich will bribe their way in, every time. That's the rational decision given the incentives.
>>2311868nobody in power wants to fix perverse incentive structures because that's hard and also they benefit from them. nobody without power can fix perverse incentive structures because they don't have power and seizing it is life risking and they'd rather just wait to die while taking what little scraps they can.
How to fix this?
>>2311896>>2311853>>2311847great, we now how the opposite of the ding dong nooteecer.
as if tiktok or youtube isn't plagued with "Marxist" analysis of children animated movies that have a "socialist revolution" script.
As if.
>>2311883Basically if it gets bad enough the system will have to reform or collapse but until then we're going to get bandaids like mass economic immigration to shore up collapsing birth rates & failing pension funds rather than actual reform & fixing the incentives.
Some of the climate change cultists say it's actually a self correcting issue because if it gets bad enough our current level of industrial activity will become impossible.

Marx favored the ideas of republics.
>>2312067How is a republic any different from anything else?
Not trying to be a dick I'm genuinely asking.
>>2312073republics care about minorities under their territorial dominion. though Marx argued in the sense of protecting the less favored ones to make the revolution, thus not every republic aims to that goal. republicans, the rethuglicans, care about the opulent minority.
at least this rethuglican party, which I assume differs from what Lincoln believed, and was co'opted by the madison thought of republic.

Besides I am at work now. I barely earn enough money to survive, and unlike you waffentwerps I don't have mommy and daddy to bail me out.
>>2312019It's probably because they're extremely pissed still at the Peronists and Kirchnerists in particular (AKA the more progressive wing of the Peronists) for not being able to tackle triple-digit inflation while they were in power.
Plus, the most prominent figureheads for them are getting embroiled in all sorts of shit that's destroying their reputations, like Cristina Fernández de Kirchner for example - she is now heading to jail for corruption charges, with her appeals repeatedly getting shot down all the way up to their supreme court, and she also has a lifetime ban now from running for any public office again. And the previous president, Alberto Fernandez, is currently going through a massive domestic abuse scandal IIRC.
>>2312102This is all impotent rage that isn't being funneled into anything productive
There is no good structure for a productive leftist movement in the US
There's a literal genocide going on right now and the US left has not mobilized in any real way in response to it
>>2312079In what way, and how is it a bad thing?
As a member it really only seems to be that they mention bureaucratism in their USSR analysis, don’t have a general secretary, and leadership seems hesitant to apply the ML label to themselves
>>2312120No they don't lol.
It's just something 'lefty' underage b&'s on the internet say to each other. I have NEVER met anyone who believe this, the 'tankman' pictures are world famous and one of them is the guy, you know, talking to the people on the stopped tank. Pretty sure there is even one of him being moved away.
>>2312072>Probably her lack of hit singles blew up her pop career. Well yes but pop superstardom is a fickle thing, and it's not necessarily the quality of the singles, but the vibes of a woman in her 40s singing like she's still in high school, but she also wants to be serious while singing about the dangers of A.I. and how Trump's reelection "retriggered" her. The vibes are just all off here.
>Although I have no clue what Gaga's hits are anymore either.She has a single that did well and millions of people at free concert in Brazil. She'll be riding Bad Romance into her 70s like Madonna. When you age out of your thirties, you can keep going by doing more mature singer-songwriter stuff or going psycho when you can't be the goofy candy queen anymore.

This is the most pointless and retarded revisionism, i swear to god. libs are retarded enough without having to make up shit about them, it just makes you sound fucking mental, especially considering if you want to use a non apocryphal example there are plenty of verifiable nonsense the libs actually believing insane things with regards to DPRK for example, picrel.
>>2312249They will all emigrate to places where can get slave-trophy-wifes easily, we are only at the begging of the Passport-Boy Great Exodus. Only the richiest and upper middle classes mens will have access to Western womens, while middle classes and proles will be forced to wed 2/3nd gen immigrants and South East Asians.
I think this trend is already in motion in the US, less in Western Europe because there a big societal divide between natives and immigrant proles.
>>2312274molotov cocktail originally meant "cocktail for molotov" in the CIA-backed hungarian counter revolution which was called a "revolution" when khruschev crushed it. It also gave us the term "tankie" since anyone who rightly recognized that the USSR was putting down a CIA-backed counter revolution were called "tankies" in 1956 during a split in the CPGB.
So it follows that molotovs are "based" when thrown by US proxies and "cringe" when thrown by anyone else, according to US feds.

fucking it up by giving it to an A.I. is some Hegelian cunning of history.

>>2312346true. Men are supposed to suck it up and be stronk.
